It is quite easy to find funding for green energy projects but, most of the time, a project will only be given say 80-85% of the funding it needs. It then has to find the balance to demonstrate its own commitment to the project, which is a lot easier said than done. Often, the smallest proportion of the financing is the hardest to find and is the part for which the project companies are prepared to pay the most.
This is where Green Energy Alliance comes in. We will be looking for projects where there is a shortfall in the funding of say 15% of the total cost. In return for providing the finance to cover the shortfall, we would expect to receive 30% of the shares in the project. An alternative would be to take a smaller percentage of the project and to treat part of the funding as loan finance rather than equity finance.

By raising the money for Green Energy Alliance and using it in the way proposed, we are able to create a portfolio of different projects to invest in, thereby reducing overall risk, and cover a broader range of ideas and approaches to ensure that many more projects become active and the benefits are enjoyed by a much greater number of people.
